Abstract Introduction.  The major and most common mechanisms for almost all antimicrobial substances is the induction of oxidative stress responses within the pathogen cells by accumulation of free radicals, which mediate a whole range of classical antimicrobial mechanisms of action observed by researchers. Thus, this present study was conducted to reveal some biochemical changes regarding the antioxidant status of pathogenic microorganisms under the influence of novel chemical compounds...

Abstract Introduction . Meningococcal infection (MI) and N. meningitidis carriage are widespread. The global incidence represents a total of 500,000-1,200,000 cases per year, of which 50,000-135,000 are fatal. In European countries the incidence is 0.6-2.0 per 100,000. Infants and young people are more likely to get affected due to different genotypes of meningococci. Thus, MI surveillance is required. Material and methods.  The research purpose was to perform an epidemiological analysis of MI...

Abstract Introduction.  Currently, there is a steadily increasing trend in losses due to flooding. Nevertheless, global warming, followed by an inevitable overuse of river valleys might further contribute to an increase in the frequency and destructive power of floods. It is quite important to trace the cause and effect chain of the economic, social and ecological impacts during the flood hazard. Material and methods.  A bibliographic research was carried out by using historical and...

Abstract Introducere . Hepatita virală C (VHC) este o problemă de sănătate globală semnificativă. Riscul de a dezvolta VHC cronic este de până la 80% dintre pacienți, dintre care 10-20% pot dezvolta ciroză hepatică sau carcinom hepatocelular care poate duce la deces. Tratamentul cu agenți antivirali cu acțiune directă (DAA) contribuie la un răspuns virusologic susținut (SVR) în 97-99% din cazuri. Material and methods.  The study was conducted on 206 patients with chronic HCV...
